Yeah it turns the engine over perfectly fine, just doesn't retract in time like you said.

However like jdraupp said, it's not easy to get to and I don't want to have to pull it back out in 6 months and lube it again.

I will try to find that DIY thread and see how long the lube job has lasted for people.


EDIT: If I do go replacement route, what do you think of the starter I'm looking at?
